IF there were a server wipe, would you change your class?Follow

If you've been watching the EQ2 forums at all, there is a lot of hype out there about a total wipe since the servers have been down so long. IF that were to happen (and it's highly unlikely), would you keep your current character archtype/class or would you change? Or perhaps quit all togehter?

I'll start...

Currently: Templar
Probably would try a Fury instead.

Nah I really enjoy my new found love of tanking. But I would for the safety of me and others wait a few months until the game is more stable. I could handle a wipe but then another one later, well I would be news lol <j/k>. But honestly I wouldnt quit but I would wait before playing again to ensure I wouldnt waste my time.

I have a Guardian Primary, with a cleric alt (or had yesterday at noon anyway lol).

Given a complete wipe, the cleric would probably be my primary, although I really enjoy bashing things over the head too lol.

Naa I enjoy playing Inquisitor but after a total server wipe I dont think I would have come back any time soon ;-)

Yes I would change my class, I'd be an assassin instead of a fury. I enjoy my 21 assassin more than my 32 fury.

I have been playing MMORPG's now for 5 years and I can't imagine ever playing as my primary anything but a healer, so I would definately recreate my Templar. Would I mind re-rolling? Now that I think about it, the most fun I have had in this game so far has been on Isle of Refuge. Might not be so bad. It would also give me the chance to re-think my crafting profession. It's looking more and more like provisioner is the way to go. The food and drink in this game give HUGE, HUGE advantage.

id prolly quit and get wow

There's no way in hell i'd switch any other archetype for my Brawler (soon to be monk). I had a lvl 60 monk in eq1 and love those more than anything. Something about dodging 60% of attacks and just being able to beat things with just your fists, that's badass if you ask me. Monks for life!

Interesting that I do not see any replies from casters.

As a Necromancer, yes I would play another class. In a hearbeat.
Pet classes are grossly underpowered (at least as far as level 20) as compared to pure DPS casters. I realize that my pet is supposed to compensate me for the lack of pure dmaage output thru my spells but, when the pet can't hold aggro nor taunt so as to reacquire aggro once its lost it, what good is having the pet? I'd much rather have 3x spell damage and just stand toe-to-toe with the mob and nuke it down.

As for my Bard, I love him. He- not my caster- is able to solo yellows and miltiple greens and blues (even group ones) without a sweat. He's great in groups, adding to stats, magic resistence, mana regen rate and attack speed. Great solo and great in groups- what more could anyone want?

Anything but enchanter. HORRIBLE!!!!

I wish every enchanter would save themselves the anguish and suffering and change to an alt or something to avoid being a mezzer.

Speaking of which, anyone in Antonia Bayle need a level 23 mezzing, stunning, breezing, dotting POT dealer?

ide stick with my Shadowknight. I've always played Shadowknights since way back in eq1.

I'de be mad, but character wipes happened back in the first months of EQ1... people still played without even flinching.

There were complaints but it didn't stop people from grinding back to where they were (this time doing it faster and better than the first time).
